Size Guide

What size will fit?

Each size we offer will fit up to the maximum height in that range. Please take measurements as follows:

Height

Measure the height of your child standing straight and with no shoes on. Measure from the top of the head to the ground.

Chest

With a fabric tape measure under the arms and the fullest part of the chest.

Waist

Place a fabric tape measure comfortably loose around the child’s natural waistline for this measurement.We design our costumes to be comfortable and a generous fit – with plenty of growing room. Wherever possible we make waists elasticated and use "Hook and Loop" fasteners to make the costumes easy to get in and out of.
If you anticipate wearing the outfit over the top of ordinary clothing it is worth considering buying the costume in a larger size.
Fur costumesThe inside of the fur fabric often has a backing that can be scratchy to the skin. After the first wash, the fabric will soften. We suggest you wear light-weight clothing under your furry costume to avoid irritation.
